Touch panel
A touch panel comprises a substrate, a first mask structure and a dense structure. The first mask structure is disposed on a surface of the substrate and divides the substrate into a mask area and a visible area disposed adjacent to the mask area. The first mask structure is disposed in the mask area. The dense structure at least masks a surface of the first mask structure farther from the substrate.
1. A touch panel, comprising:
a substrate;
a first mask structure disposed on a surface of the substrate and dividing the substrate into a mask area and a visible area disposed adjacent to the mask area, wherein the first mask structure is disposed in the mask area;
a dense structure at least masking a surface of the first mask structure farther from the substrate;
a touch sensing structure, comprising:
an electrode structure disposed on a surface of the dense structure in the visible area; and
a plurality of wires disposed on the dense structure in the mask area, partially extended to the surface of the dense structure in the visible area, and electrically connected with the electrode structure;
a second mask structure disposed between the dense structure and the plurality of wires and located in the mask area; and
a protection layer disposed on a side of the touch sensing structure farther from the second mask structure and located in the mask area, wherein:
the protection layer at least masks the plurality of wires and the second mask structure,
the second mask structure and the protection layer comprise black ink material or black photoresist material,
the first mask structure comprises a first mask layer and a second mask layer,
the first mask layer is disposed on the substrate,
the second mask layer is disposed on an upper surface of the first mask layer and between the dense structure and the first mask layer,
the second mask layer overlaps all of the upper surface of the first mask layer,
an area of the first mask layer is less than an area of the second mask layer, and
the second mask layer is extended to the substrate along a lateral face of the first mask layer closer to the visible area.
2. The touch panel as recited in claim 1 , wherein the dense structure further masks a lateral face of the first mask structure closer to the visible area.
3. The touch panel as recited in claim 2 , wherein the dense structure is extended to the surface of the substrate in the visible area along the lateral face of the first mask structure closer to the visible area.
4. The touch panel as recited in claim 1 , wherein the dense structure further masks a lateral face of the first mask structure farther from the visible area.
5. The touch panel as recited in claim 1 , wherein the dense structure is made of a transparent insulating material.
6. The touch panel as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first mask structure comprises an opaque non-black insulating material.
